Euthanasia should be a human right!

[Eternal Sleep!]

It should be legalized and prescribed by doctors just as antidepressants if you suffer so much.

 

[FuneralCry]

Of course it should be, it's absolutely inhumane how it isn't as after all none of us are obligated to suffer in this existence we were unfortunate enough to be burdened with. It disgusts me how so many people are against the permanent relief and escape from all suffering, the right to die is compassionate.

i find it hard to believe that there isn't a single country on this vast earth that won't give you a quick hassle free painless solution. i mean what would they care if someone from another country wanted an early peace? may even benefit citizens of their own country. maybe they could use some of the organs. i'd be fine with that.

i wouldn't even ask them to send my body back home. i wouldn't ask to be buried even (cremation would be just fine). one less consumer in the world driving up prices. and i'd even pay them for their services.

Its all about money. Why let someone easily kill himself if you can keep him running for several years while earning shit loads of money from food, meds, pet food, transportation and everything.

I believe that hundreds of people would choose not to exist anymore daily if it was simple and painless. Governments and big companies want to keep every consumer. There is so much money to make with sick and or disabled people.

Sadly this is the bitter truth I guess, it just shows in what a fucked up and sick world we live!

Money is more important then a humans wellbeing, it's just disgusting.

 

[EndJstifiesTheMeans]

Life it will be not even that bad if they help you ctb if things goes wrong

But yeah even with that you don't know what happen after you die

And personally the thought that the person i love would still hate me, makes me feel like even if i ctb my pain won't stop because of her opinion about me

It's for sure better never born or exist

 

[Minsu]

I'm seconding this. It should be.
The argument of pro lifers is that we shouldn't have the right to kill ourselves because we have suicidal thoughts because of sick brain though

 

[crystalblade21]

yes. just yes

 

[front of me]

Suicide is not among the provisions of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights

Right. I would like to donate my organs and give away my possessions to the one's who need it in exchange for a painless exit at the time of my choosing.

If money is the problem, why not set a separate account like we have pension account and if the contribution to that account reached a threshold value, one will be eligible for Euthanasia, no questions asked. That money will go to the govt. It will be like a tax mechanism, but atleast we will get euthanasia implemented. If money is the only reason for not allowing it , will this help?

Given the fact that religion is a belief system and govt. itself says not to impose religion and religious belief on anyone ..and considering the fact that companies wouldn't want suicidal people on their payroll... this still confuses me. Why is this not allowed..

 

[MyChoiceAlone]

totally agree. isn't it ironic/hypocritical that governments that have missiles capable of wiping out whole cities at a time won't let you do what you want with your own single life? wasn't that long ago that scientists/environmentalists were running around warning of human overpopulation? they spend so much money looking for a new planet to live on but they won't allow us this.

 

[Praestat_Mori]

Yes it should be but I doubt my personal case would be included in that kind of "euthanasia". Suicide must be a human right in general and peacefully and painless methods like N must be available to anyone. Imo SI is the best natural protection only humans who are really ready to go will be able to defeat it anyway.

Also it is hypocritical that the morality clause is utilised to not let a human being die when the person is not willing to live , but nobody opposes the killing of animals which can equally feel the pain and have equal SI.

and then there are the homeless, jobless, starving addicts. they still want to live. personally, i'd never want to live like that. they live in campers, tents, under tarps, bare concrete 24/7 during all 4 seasons. they have to steal to feed their addiction. what happens to them? remember they don't want to ctb (i think). what does the government do for them? tow away their rv's, throw their possessions into a garbage truck. something very wrong here. almost sounds like they want to deny our right to die yet make people who want to live want to die. @Done forlife: i'm a huge animal lover too. thanks for that.

 

[gramh]

The sad part, is at least in the U.S. there continues to be more and more studies done on how to effectively and quickly end someone's life by execution in the most humane way possible. The world spends godawful amounts of time and money on how best to effectively end lives for war time. But the line in the sand for people seems to be the termination of life as a choice of those who are willing to give up those lives.

I absolutely agree. I hate that is impossible for me to get professional support for a final way out. Sure there are some cases you would have to be careful about, like if coercion is involved or if it's acting on impulse. But as long as you one decides for oneself (as best as it is possible in the given situation) and it's not a spur of the moment thing, i.e. you wouldn't think about it totally different the next day, then I think it is a human right to choose what happens to you and your body.

 

[jbear824]

Absolutely agree. But before that happens we need our society to drop the idea that wanting to die means you're not of sound mind. Because right now unless you are physically suffering, you are considered unsound of mind if you want to end your life. Until we get rid of that idea, we'll never progress towards a future where the right to die is given to everyone. Of course there are many other factors hindering our progress towards this future. Like the sanctity of life crap. Ugh, it's just all so cruel and for no reason.

In some places it's legal

 

[Ligottian]

I'm for legal euthanasia for all people 21 and older. Younger folks might be going through a temporary situation. And no "reason" need be given. Imagine getting a quick, painless death as easily as getting a vaccine

 

[sunsetting]

The economy wouldn't like that! Could you imagine having to acknowledge the shitty society we currently have and do something meaningful about it?

 

[Captive_Mind515]

I've often considered what might happen if more people actually tested the legal system with regard to assisted suicide.

If you had lots of people locked up in prison for helping others to peacefully exit this world, would this eventually highlight the archaic nature of the system? It might create more publicity and force governments to admit that they need to change the laws. Sadly, nothing really changes unless you create huge publicity for a particular cause. It's just too easy presently, for governments to ignore those who wish to have a peaceful exit from this life.

But so long as communities such as this one exist, there remains a chance of progress. That's why they're afraid of this site, they know that people coming together with common goals and a collective will, can help bring about change. You need the power of numbers to achieve these things.
